Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Some news sources sell suvscrptions via newsletter.
Personally I find it quite nice, its similar to RSS and has high quality authors.
I get it as a means to generate revenue, but I wouldn't ever want to be responsible for mail deliverability if I'm getting paid for the email.
I'd just outsource that shit to SES, or mailgun, or mailchimp, or brevo, or whoeverthefuck and not worry about it.
The host it yourself thing just struck me as a weird thing that suddenly was EVERYWHERE I was looking and I couldn't figure out what in the world the use case was.
I agree with you, I don't want the trouble and just use mailgun free tier.
That said, I just need password reset emails for my IAM solution.
I imagine some just want to try, under the desire to avoid having their email data misused for data collection / ai training
